Botox ® is used for treating vulvodynia, vulvar vestibulitis and vaginismus. These are painful conditions of the vulvar and the vaginal area.

The problems can be chronic, disabling and frustrating women, many of whom are unable to have intercourse without pain.

Botox® therapy for vaginismus and vulvodynia (pain)

Help! My vagina is too small! too tight!
The adult vagina itself is not too small to accommodate a penis. The walls of the vagina are very stretchy, but its entrance can go into a spasm when your partner tries to insert his penis.
This condition is called vaginismus, and Botox can help!

Vaginismus is an abnormal, cramp-like, condition of the vaginal muscles. In particular, it interferes with intercourse making it, not only painful, but even impossible. Refraining from sex is, of course, not the way most women want to go.
Botox is a proven long-term muscle relaxant. It has been extensively used in facial aging and spasticity. It is administered by fine needle injection directly into the offending muscles.
Botox will paralyze and relax cramping muscles temporarily, usually for three to six months. No anaesthetic is required.

The treatment takes place as an outpatient procedure. We tend to inject the minimal amount necessary and prefer to give additional shots, free of cost, should the treatment be inadequate after two weeks.

A Botox ® injection may cure vaginismus

The antispasmodic effect will disappear entirely over time, but the effect of a normalised sex life during this period may actually cure the vaginismus.

Should vaginismus recur after the Botox effect has worn, repeat injections may be required.
